I know this is a weird question but is it possible to play android games on pc with an emulator or something? I heard that there is an android emulator for pc so you can check out the os design and stuff like that but is it possible to install games (.apk) on it and play it?
Thanks for answers.
The Android SDK comes with an emulator, and you can use adb to install apps onto it, but it is incredibly slow!

Though that's likely to not work with some games - if they've used any C++ code, that'll be compiled for the Arm CPU rather than x86
Youwave for Android works great! My son wanted to play Robodefense on the PC so I found this little piece of software that's simple and uses .apk files I had on my G-Tablet.

I had high hopes for youwave after installing Android SDK and packages (They were really slow). Youwave seems nice and quick, but the first two apps I tried to play wouldn't work due to them not being supported by youwave
You can use Emulators to play games on PC
Some emulators come with inbuilt app store from which you can install and play the games.
For example Youwave. But they do have limitation like they cannot handle games that use ARM native code.
Also some famous games like fruit ninja , Angry Birds are available to be played online itself.

Has anyone tried to run android apps within webtop without going through the phone window? Apps liked splashtop and Netflix would be awesome at full resolution.
I was looking for a way to run PC-98 applications on Android. To my knowledge, there appears to be only 1 PC-98 emulator designed for Android, and it is NP2 (which, isn't compatible with the games I want to run).
Another possible idea that I thought about was to maybe run DOSBox + Win95 or 98 + a PC-98 emulator although, I imagine this might even be too slow, if it would even work at all.
So does anyone have any other suggestions for maybe trying to run PC-98 apps/games? Maybe another Android app capable of emulating PC-98?
I got the software that lets me emulate devices, I just don't know how to use it. I want to play APK based games on PC but I'm not sure how to set the emulator.
This is probably a slightly peculiar question that I am posting here.
I need a bare minimum android emulator for windows that would be able to take a webcam as an input. I have developed an augmented reality application using Vuforia and Unity3d. Compiled application only works for android because of the Vuforia, however I would need it on a windows 7. I have tried it on a Bluestack emulator and it works fine, I have also tested several other emulators. Typically webcam input does not work or it has 1 second delay. Bluestack seems to be fine, but I would require something that requires less computer resources than Bluestack.
